Custom appointment form and the preview pane

M

mattheere

I have a customized appointment form that I want my users to use to
schedule meetings. It includes an additional tab with options to
order food for their meeting, and some VBScript code.

I'd like for the recipients of the meeting request to get the standard
meeting-request item in their inbox. I only want the custom form to
come up if the user opens the item from their calendar. That way, they
retain the preview pane functionality in their Inbox, but still have
access to the customized form capabilties.

Is this possible?

Thanks!
Matt

Not possible. Using a custom appointment form means that the meeting request is also a custom form.

Matt,

I've been working on something very similar. You may be able to achieve what
you want by comparing the session.currentuser with the organizer of the
appointment and suppressing the custom part of the form by hiding it if they
are both non empty and don't match.
